Franchise Owner

Anne Lewis

“Hi, I am Anne Lewis, the owner and operator of the Primrose School of Shawnee.

I’d like to tell you about myself, my family and my Primrose Story. Growing up, my parents instilled strong family values in me that I continue to pass on to this day. One of the most rewarding things that I have ever done is raise my children! With my children being older now, I want to get involved in the community and make a difference in the world. I aim to provide the same high standard of care that I expect for my own children. This is what led me to opening the Primrose School of Shawnee. Primrose Schools provides a nurturing environment that feels like an extension of your own family.

Originally from Indiana, I graduated from Northern Illinois University and moved to Kansas. I have franchiser business experience and I have experience running a center and childcare. I understand the daunting challenges of balancing a career and family. At the school, I plan to handle the day-to-day operations, working closely with parents, children and staff. I am married to my awesome husband, Phil. I have three loving and amazing children; Alyssa, Abigail, and Dalton.

Primrose Schools strives to deliver the best and most trusted early education and care. We believe that who children become is as important as what they know. Our exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, confidence, creativity and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum; it’s a life-changing early learning experience for children and their families. I am excited to bring this exceptional quality care to the Shawnee community.

I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into our Primrose family!

I feel comfortable leaving my daughter at Primrose, and that's a really big deal to me. I trust the staff with my child. She is very happy and has loved every teacher she's had. Seeing her learn and grow in such an encouraging environment has been a privilege to watch. Everyone really seems to care about what they do and that's everything to me.
Our family has been going to Primrose School of Shawnee for the past four years and are so appreciative of leadership, staff and all the support they've provided to our boys and family during this time. Our boys are more than ready to take on kindergarten! Our 1st grader continues to test within the 90-100th percentile in reading and math, and I know it's because of the structure and curriculum offered during his time at Primrose that helped him be prepared!
The leadership group at Primrose School of Shawnee is top-notch. They are always quick to handle any concerns and prioritize a positive family experience all around.
I've had both of my children at Primrose School of Shawnee for four years and it's been a wonderful fit for my family. Primrose definitely prepared my oldest child for kindergarten and the transition went extremely well, in large part due to the curriculum and learning environment at Primrose. The staff feels like family and is always friendly. I send my children to the summer Explorers program as well and it's been great!
Primrose School of Shawnee is exactly what every child needs in their younger years. The staff is welcoming and caring every step of the way. Children receive the best care from the teachers while also expanding their skills in fine and gross motor skills. There is a perfect balance of learning, indoor and outdoor play, and quiet time. Even the snacks and meals are wonderful! Both of my children have grown in their time at Primrose School of Shawnee socially, emotionally, and academically, and I can’t thank the staff enough for the love and care we have received.
